My measurements


Kia Ora 
In the first 2weeks of lock down my Mum helped me do Time, Length and weight measurements, I had lots of fun doing time trials with my cousins, brothers and sister. Here is the work I have done. I hope you like it.


Time Trials
  • Do a handstand                                 2sec     
  • Dry weetbix                                       1 min 38 sec
  • Run around the yard                         1 min 30sec
  • Drink a glass of water                       15sec
  • Sing Happy Birthday                         5sec       
  • 10 Press ups                                    52sec 
 How many days old are you?
There are 365 days in a year and a extra day in a leap year 365 x 8 =        2920 There have been 2 leap years since I was born and 1 this year  + 3 = 2923

My Uncle’s house and yard is huge, there are areas we can not get around but he told me it was about an Acre section. That is why we came here because there is lots of room for all of us.
